Few of the sub-genres we cover on the show are as nerdy as prog rock. From the intricate, long compositions to the sci-fi infused lyrics – 70s prog rock pushed the boundaries of rock music and helped bring nerds into the limelight.

On today’s show we discuss 3 iconic prog rock albums from the era.

Rush – 2112 (Andy)

Yes – Close to the Edge (Don)

Klaatu – 3:47 EST (Dude)
